Black Wolf by Kathleen Kent is a crime-fiction/spy thriller that takes place in the 90's, when the USSR is starting to break up. "Melvina Donleavy discovers a rare talent growing up. She is a super-recognizer. She can remember any face after seeing it once. She is recruited by the CIA and sent with a team to Byelorussia to seek out some Iranian scientists looking to buy Russian nuclear technology. Mel struggles to stay unnoticed but the head of the KGB knows something is going on with her team. And she's attracted the attention of a serial killer. Mel wonders if her first mission will be her last." This book is part spy thriller. Think Tom Clancy with a female MC. And it's a serial killer crime fiction story. There is some overlap in the story. Kent's killer is pretty terrifying - operating in plain sight and she uses him for story resolution. I wish a little that that had been a seperate book. Just a personal preference The story moves quickly, staying mostly in Mel's head. Her ability is unusual but many readers will have something similar, just not to this extreme. It's nice to revisit the Cold War spy game. Entertaining read from Kent. Thanks to @novelsuspects and @mulhollandbooks for the advanced copy. #blackwolf #kathleenkent #mulhollandbooks #novelsuspectsinsiders #novelsuspects #hachettebookgroup #spythriller #bookstagram #bookshelves #booknerd #readinglife #bookphotography #bookcommunity #bookblogger #sodacityreads #suspensebook #bookhaul #literarycrimefiction #homelibrary #thrillerbooks #domesticthriller #crimefiction #thriller #characterdrivenbooks #mysterythriller #bookrecs https://www.instagram.com/p/CocUa6Mr57p/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Are you someone who needs to live in or near a city, or would you be happy living in the middle of woods miles away from the nearest town or neighbors? After reading Wonderland by @zoje.stage_author your answer to this might change.

.

Thank you so much to @mulhollandbooks and @zoje.stage_author for this free ARC of Wonderland! This book was everything I had hoped for after loving the book Baby Teeth so much!

.

Synopsis from the publisher: The Bennett family -- artist parents and two precocious children -- are leaving their familiar urban surroundings for a new home in far upstate New York. They're an hour from the nearest city, a mile from the nearest house, and everyone has their own room for the very first time. Shaw, the father, even gets his own painting studio, now that he and his wife Orla, a retired dancer, have agreed that it's his turn to pursue his passion. But none of the Bennetts expect what lies waiting in the lovely woods, where secrets run dark and deep. Orla must finally find a way to communicate with -- not just resist -- this unknown entity that is coming to her family, calling to them from the land, in the earth, beneath the trees ... and in their minds.

.

This book was amazing! As I continue to think about all of the details after finishing this book I keep making connections to different things,and am blown away by the level of detail and layers that make up this terrifying tale. Zoje Stage asks her readers to confront the most basic things that make us feel scared, but also to confront the evils we know that should scare us if we would only listen or pay more attention. This book takes what she started with a terrifying child character in her novel Baby Teeth and turns the level of feeling out of control and blind terror to a new level. This is a book that you won’t be able to put down, but will also be tempted to throw across the room out of fear. Read after dark at your own risk. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I have waited three years for this book. I am so happy to finally have it in my hands. I was going to read Children of Blood and Bone but it’s going to have to wait. This has been one of my most anticipated reads of the year.

It’s 🐪 day ya’ll! For once this week is flying by, and I’m kind of enjoying it. Go figure 🤷🏻‍♀️ I stayed up late last night and finished my current read. I already have my next book picked out which I’ll debut tonight for #winewednesday ... Stay tuned! . 🦋 . DEAD PRETTY by David Mark released yesterday. I’m not familiar with his writing, but after reading the synopsis I quickly ordered the first in the series. . 🦋 . Thank you to Blue Rider Press { #partner } for sending me a copy! . 🦋 . Synopsis: . While a colleague struggles to solve the recent killing of a man too vile to have mourners, Aector McAvoy, Detective Sergeant of the Humberside Police's murder squad, is still haunted by the past. His devotion to his cases is unshakeable, but it's been nine months since Hannah Kelly disappeared in the quiet English countryside, and it is becoming harder to convince himself that she is just missing instead of dead... especially when another young woman is found brutally murdered. As McAvoy looks for connections between the women, his boss Trish Pharaoh is preoccupied with troubles of her own. Reuben Hollow--a man convicted of murder with the help of perjured testimony from the Humberside Police--has just been released from prison after a high-profile wrongful conviction suit, putting Pharaoh's reputation at stake. But when her house is broken into and her children threatened, she soon learns it is not only her good name that's in danger. As the cases intertwine and Pharaoh's behavior becomes more erratic, McAvoy must question who he can trust if he is to uncover Hannah's fate and find justice for the dead--without joining them himself. . 🦋 . #deadpretty #davidmark #blueriderpress #mulhollandbooks #crimefiction #thriller #crimebythebook #readcrimefiction #fortheloveofbooks #jennblogsbooks #mustread #booksandcoffee #scentpopcandles #lovetoread #bookworm

Everybody Knows by Jordan Harper is crime fiction that takes you behind the curtain of celebrity scandal and bad behavior. "Mae is a black bag publicist. Her job is not letting the good news out, but keeping the bad news in. She works for one of the most sought-after crisis PR firms in LA. They protect the rich and powerful by any means necessary. Her boss claims to have some information that could be life-changing for both of them but he is gunned down in a "random" attack before he can tell her. Mae starts looking into what it could be and soon finds herself up against someone who is only whispered about. She must make a choice about how far she is willing to go." Harper paints a vivid picture of how far the rich and powerful in entertainment are willing to go to maintain the staus quo - no matter how depraved or criminal. Money or the promise of money talks. Lots of morally grey in the pages. The story comes from two POVs - Mae and Chris, who works for a security company. They are former colleagues that find themselves working the same issue. They join forces trying to find the truth and save a life. There are several gruesome moments and an unexpected ending. Harper does a nice job leading you to one ending and pivoting to another. Two Brads in this story. One is dead from OD and the other is firebombing homeless camps. #bradscantcatchabreak An interesting, well-written story from Harper.

Getaway

2 sisters & their friend reunite for a hike into the Grand Canyon. When supplies go missing, they believe someone is following them with evil intent. @zooshka @MulhollandBooks #thriller #GirlsTrip #backpacking #GrandCanyon #review

It was supposed to be the ultimate girl’s trip. Hiking into the Grand Canyon in the off-season to reunite two adult sisters with their best friend from high school. It was the perfect Getaway. But then some of their supplies go missing. They suspect someone might be following them into the canyon. Someone with bad motives. Is it payback for a secret from their past? The plot is slow to start.…
